Captiln Cnarles Do Ilinllo of the Seventh
cavalry relates what ho moJcstly terms "an
Incident of the Little nig Horn fight" In
Harper's Weekly. In reality It In a record
of his ovn experience In the battle of the
Ijlttln Hlg Horn In which the gallant Custcr
nnil his bravo command rode to their death.
Captain Do Iludlo had clnrgo of an advance
column and was obliged for three dajo and
nlffhln to dodge and fight scattered parties
of Indians , The story of his adventures
Is van follows :
"There Is your horse , Lieutenant. "
V'hoii the man npoko these words I was
kneeling on top of the bank of the dry
creek , with seven or eight men , guarding
n pony-crossing , to prevent the Indians past
ing It and flanking the right o ( our skirmish
line.
line."I
"I don't want my horse. Keep him down
there. "
"They arc retreating , sir , " said the trum
peter.
"No older has been given for re
treat , nor has tbero bcrn any trum
pet cull , " I replied. Hut the few men that
vcro with mo. when they hcird that the
oommand was "retreating , ran to tliolr
horses , which were standing In the bottom
of the cioek , ami In splto of my orders to
rcn.'Rln where they were , they mounted and
followed the rctreailng party. I then oatno
down from tht bank and mountpd my horse ,
nt the caino tlnv.- cautioning the two or three
men wlic had remained with mo to go out
together , but they werenlioady anxious mid
conftiHcd. 1 watted until I siw e\cry man
mounted and an wo were about to start I
glanced at the top of the bank I had just
Itft , when I saw there , plnntod In the ground ,
a guidon. I said to the last man who had
mounted hlb horse , who was also the last
man .o leave the top of the bunk : "Go back
nnd got that guidon , " and lie answered me4
"Guidon bo damninl. Lieutenant ! They are
coming close on us ! " Ho put spurs to hU
horse nnd away ho went. I went back to
get the guidon , spurring my boras up the
Bleep hank , and as I reached for the staff
I saw , not more than thirty yards In front of
mcabout twonty-fivo or thirty Indians com
ing. When they saw mo they fired a vollej
nt mo , but too high , and with the guidon and
reins In my left hand , and lEvolvor In m >
rlgjit , I rode down the bank and struck off
through the thick underbrush of the creek
bottom , and before the Indians that had flred
reached the bulk I had left I was sufficiently
hidden by the underwood to bo covered fron.
tbnlr shots.
The bottom of this dry creek was probably
forty or fifty yards wide. I was going
through It as fast as I could , when thu
guidon became entangled In the branches
and I was obliged to dismount to free the
flag nnd to load my horse to fie south bank
of the cicek When thv Indians had reached
the bank I bad left tftfy could hear me golnn
through thr brush , but. could' not see me
They flred iiaii ) idiots at the sound , and the
bullets tut the branehiB all about mo. but
fortunately none strucl ino or the horse
Had'I followed thn open path I could not
have got out of the bottom of the creek
\\ltboit being either killed or wounded.
When I struggled up the steep south bank
of the creek , pulling my horse up after me
nnd reached the top , I was astonished to see
there In front of me , and not more than
forty or fifty jards distant , hundreds of In
dians , all with their backs toward mo and
shooting at the rctteating soldleis Through
the smoke I could distinctly sec that
my ictreatliiK comrades had all crossed the
Little Dig Horn and reached the hills. I
saw then that I was cut off. nnd expecting
the Indians that had flred at mo to come
out of the woods behind me , I believed that
I was lost.
I then decided to cut my way through the
I.idlans who were before me. In the desperate
hope that In the confusion and In their fear
of hitting one another , I might pass through
the host of savages. At all events. I could
kill some of them and die like an American
soldier. '
The guidon was In my way , nnd I threw It
down the bank of the creek , and prepared
to mount my hoi so. I had one foot In the
stirrup , when a young brave came out of
the woods about thirty yards on my right ,
and as IIP peicolved mo gave a yell and flred
. The bullet hit my horse's thigh. The animal
made a jump ; my foot slipped ifrom the stir
rup and the lelns from my hand. At that
moiiM-nt the savages In front of mo , hearing
, ho shot behind them , turned and saw me
I wns now trying to catch my horse. He
was between mo and the Indians They flred
a volley , which killed my horse , and I made
a Jump to the banlt of the creek , which saved
my life. Had I been five or six yards from
the bank I could not have reached It alive ,
but fortunately I was \ory near. I dropped
under the bank , and stood ready to kill any
Indian that would bo bold enough to look
over It. They flred se-'cral volleys at the
spot wheio I had dropped , and some of the
bills struck the bank over my head , but I
was still unhurt.
In twn or three minutes I heard ! a terrific
yplling among the Indians , and their firing
sllerro. I nilsed my head cautiously , parted
the tal prats on the edge of the bunk , and
looking through , I saw the Indians all gazing
up tbo ilvcr and pointing In that direction.
As I looked I i"ivv Ciptaln Captain Dentoen's
column coming over the hills Of con retI
wa.i gla 1 to tee this , ami hoped that they
would come down and charge the enemy and
give mo tie ! only chance I could have for joinIng -
Ing them. Hut after a few minutes of hope
lliu column dlsippeaied and at the I'amo time
I heard how vollejs on the other side of the
vlllago , fun. Immediately the greater part of
the IndliiiH started off In that direction.
Dining thn Interval bctwton the appearance
of llcntceu/H column and Its disappearance
Ilono's command , which wat > scattered In
confusion over the tiltls , iallied and came to
gether. I then say that mv onlv chance was
either to follow the bottom of the rroe.lt.
undercover of the undeibrush , get as near
( is pnvilulu to the foot of the hill whe'o Iteno
viaa , crcM the river and inn up the hill , or
else to stay In the wuoods until night and
then Join my command , The Indians that
vvcte loft wo-o all on the west side of the
stream , From whore I was I could distinctly
sco Reno's command , 1 bellavo that a few
minutes before Ituno'a retreat I saw General
Caster uhd two other officers on top of tbo
Ml'lhC'ct bill on Itm right hand In front of
where 1 was , Ho cheered u * with hi * hat ,
Ho wan . .dismounted , and soon dlsiK'eured.
" * I vv s picking my way through the wood ,
what ! I hoiid In a low voice , "Lieutenant ,
lleuto'iant ! " I looked around , and there ,
squatted under the brush , were Private
O'Nell of O troop , Mr. Ofrard , the Interpre
ter and the scout , Jackson. Tim last two
had thnlr hours wjth them , The brave sll-
'
dler had'had hla horse killed In the retrest.
I said to the scout and Interpreter that they
had better lot their bones go , as they might
neigh and call tno attenllrn of the Indians ,
whom wo could sco passing 'o and fro at
the edge of the bank of theek within n
few > ards from where wo vveno , They rte.
dined to do this. I then left them end told
them that I woull follow the bottom at the
clock'and try to reach the font of the hill ,
During this tlmo there was heavy firing on
the north side of the village. I reached the
clefjlug which I was defending before the
retreat , and which was perhaps fifteen or
twenty feet wide nt the bottom r' 'ho creek ,
t remained at the Piige of the clearing ,
walrnlrm for a chance to erots It unpercclved
by the IniHanr , . who were constantly passing
nsar It , when Uiek came right up within
a few feet of ai * . He cut off A switch and
vent on , t
I tlipo s w I was too much exposed and
that I could not cross the clearing without
being teen , to 1 resolved to make my way i
Into the thickest of the brush nnd to stay ,
there until night. In looking about for a j
good billing place ' found among the debris I '
of drill wood a holo. I cntcrol It and took t
II my pistol cartridge * oub of my belt , putting - I
ting them on the ground ready to use In , I
cane if te'riK discovered. It had not been I
( her ; ft , uiluute vvheu I heard two pistol sbota
so noai'by ' put I saw the curling siuoke over | '
my * bead , am ? soon after I heard llii singing '
Df lutlliu women uoir by n * . I tautloutly | I
raited my head , and there , within four or
flvo yards , were five or six squawn mutilat
ing a dead noldler.Tho two shots I had hrird
were no doubt flred n the dead nun I felt
tcmpctcd to fire at them , but thought It bet
ter to keep quiet andjot fire until I was
actually discovered. Onii further considera
tion t thought that If Those women were goIng -
Ing through the woods ncirchlng for dead
bodies , they might soon discover me , and I
concluded that this would be the time to
flre. Pretty soon another squaw , further up
the bank , catltd the women , and they all
went away. Them was a dead Indian up
there , end ihey mourned over him and picked
him up and carried him away.
Soon after they left I heard n crushing
noise , which I thought was made by a num
ber of horses coming through the woods , but
I soon discovered that I wns mistaken. The
Indians had flred tbo timber , and th.e _ 2inku
soon forced me out of my hid,1115 place. I
moved away n. little distance , when I again
heard a volco calling "Lieutenant. " I ad
vanced toward that welcome sound , nnd
there , under the roots of a very large cottonwood -
wood tree projecting over the bank of the
ma In channel of the creek were the three
men I had left about an hour 'before ' The
two scouts had left their horses where I flrsi
met them , but had stuffed sonic grass In
their nostrils to prevent their calling The
flrc , which nt first had been coming toward
us , now traveled In another direction , nnd
soon It began to rnln , but not much , Wo
concluded that our best plan vva'f to remain
whcio wo were until night , and then , under
cover of the darkno a. to attempt to join tlio
command on the hill.
I mentioned that soon after the disappear ,
anco of Upnteen'8 column I heard the firing
of tremendous vollejs on the north sldo or
the village. These continuous volleys lasted
about twenty minutes , and pretty soon after
they ceased a horde of savages returned
from the north sldo of the vlllago and sur
rounded Hello's command , which had then
been re-enforced by the arrival of Ilenteen's
three troops nnd the troop of MaeUougal
with the pack-train.
When I saw tbo return of the savages I
Imagined that Ouster bad been dtleated , but
I thought that ho had ictreatcd to where
Ueno was. The fight on the hill continued
all day , until night , About 9 o'clock the
two scouts went to get their horses , nnd vvc
started to go out of tha woods , Intending to
go straight to Reno's hill , but we soon found
that wo could not get through the line of
watching Indians without being scon , so we
decided to make n detour across the three
miles of plain and to ford the river where
we had crossed It that morning. It was a
moonlight night , but cloudy. The plain was
covered with wild sage and very sandy. The
two scouts were mounted on their horses ,
and I took hold of the tall of Gerard's and
O'Nell that of the scout Jackson's , and In
single fllo wo boldly proceeded to cross the
plain. There wore many small parties of
Indians moving about , some coming and
some going , and often wo found ourselves
within fifty or sixty yards of one of these
parties Of course when we saw them be
fore us wo turned aside so as not to meet
them , and In passing them O'Nell and I
would move up on the opposite side of the
hotscs. so thai the enemy could not see that
there was anyone on foot. In that way , af
ter having successfully passed tlneo of thesa
pirllrn , wo reached the timber , and soon
the bank of the Little lllg Horn. Hero vvo
were obliged to deviate from our course
Wo missed the ford and saw that we bad
struck the river below It , so we followed the
bank up the rlvor as closely ( as the thick ,
woods would pcrmlti Wo were going In sin
gle flle Gerard In front and I holding on by
the tall of his horse , when all at once we
hoard In front of us"IIcvv ? " There before
us was a squad of Indians. Gerard put his
spurs to his hoi so and I had to let go the
till and In an Instant ho had disappeared
through Iho wood. Jackson did the same
thing. I dropped on my knees among the
hrlnra. holdlnc my pistol ready to fire. The
Indians laughed and called out to the riders
to come back , that the- were Indians : but
when they saw that the fugitives did not an-
avver them I was convinced by the way they
, -cted that they thought the riders were
white men. I was then but three or four
yards from the nearest Indian , and coulil
distinctly see them , as I had the sky to help
mo For a little while they talked among
themselves In a low tone ofolce and then
scorned to decide to go on. They passed in
single flle within tlnee or four yards of me ,
and I counted thirteen of them. I Imme
diately saw that I had the advantage of
them. They evidently had not discovered
that behind
me never for a moment Imagining
hind each rider there was n man on foot. I
could see them , and If ono of them dlscov-
eied me , could have killed him and then run
away through the thick underbrush.
After they had passed me and had gone >
far that I could no longer hear them , I rose
un from the ground and called for O'Nell
About ten yards behind' ' me O'Nell rose and
answered me. "By the gods ! that was prettj
close lieutenant , " he ald. I said to him.
"O'Nell , this timber Is foil of Indians ; let
us proceed very cautiously to the ford. " We
did so , but 'When wo reached that place we
found an Indian picket there. We then de
termined to hide' ' ourselves In the thickest
part of the underbrush , and only n few yards
from the river , nnd to await there for day
light. It was now about 1 o'clock In the
morning.
Wo found a go6d place nnd secreted our
selves. At about 3 o'clock a. m . we could
hear a loud noise of women , children and
dogs , and the grating of travolse ? . The vll
lago was evidently moving UP the river , and
was | M > sslnK only about 100 yards from u" .
Very soon we could hear close to us some
horses crossing tbo river. We could distinctly
hear the clicking of the horses' shoes on the
gravel bed of tbo river. At this point the
liver ran at the foot of the hill , and we
Imagined that these horsemen must be Bonif"
of our party , who were crossing to tbo west
stile of the stream , so we crawled to the bank
of the river ; and there on the other side that
Is , on the east side wo could see borne
mounted men drctscd In buckskins and blue
blouses , with white sombreros , mounted evi
dently on American horses , but we could not
understand why they were crossing east.
Wo stood there watching them. Some were
going up the hill opposite to us. and some
were following the east bank of the river
Krom wboro we wore vvo could not see whore
they were crossing , nj the river made a bond
Immediately below us. The hill Interrupted
the light , so that although wo could see these
people and recognbo the horses and riders
and their dress , wo could not distinguish
their features Pi city teen I noticed ono rider
dressed In buckskin and mounted on a sorrel
horse- with four white legs. I was sure the
man was Captain Custer , as ho was dressed
ns the captain had been , and mounted on his
own horse. I got up from the ground anJ
called the captain At thu sound of my volco
all of the party , these who were going up the
hill and these ( Hit were on the bank of thu
river , stopped They looked , but could no1
sea me , as I was surrounded by brush , I
then raised my hat and waved It , when a yell
and n volley told us that they were Ind'ans. '
We Immediate ! } rushed through tbo brush ,
but those who were on the hill flred whenever
they saw the branches moving. A party of
them rushed back across the tlver , and I saw
that If vvo could not get ncro a llttlo openIng -
Ing In the wood vvo should be Killed by those
on try of the hill. When wo reached the edge
of the wood , before attempting to cross the
cloailng , I kneeled down close behind two
large cottouwood stumps and looked down the
dealing.
I then saw It was too late to attempt to
now as a "party of the Indians were coining
up near thu edge of the brush ; so 0 .said to
O'Nell : "Put jour pistol down hero so that
I may use It , and you use thn carbine and
stand our ground here , Don't flre until
they are close to us , Bvory shot must count. "
I rested my plftol on the top of his stump ,
about a yard from me and above mo , and
we resolved to try our desperate rhanuoa.
Soi/n thn foremost Indian had approached
within five lards of me , evldcntly havlng
no Idea where we were. I llred. and bo
turned , -vent about ten jaids and dropped
dead. The others behind him turned Im
mediately , when O'Nell flrol bis rarblnn
at the nearest ono. Ho jumped out of Iho
saddle pirt of thn long tall of his war
bonnet was left ihsuKJiiB to the nearest
branch , find another dead In-lUn lay on the
ground , During this tlhie the party on the
hill continued to _ , fire Into the brush , but
from where tLyvere they could not tee
us. About four yards behind us was an
Immense fallen cottonxood Irre Ivlng horl-
zontally about thrp-j feet fiom the grnun 1. I
We passed under It to reach whom wo were , 1 i
Indiana on Um h'll ' lind e n the two puffs '
of smoku from our two shoto , and
they , then flro , , In that direction. '
The retreating part ) went ocroi.4 the clr-ir- 1
li'K opposite to us , and there began 4o flre at
the two gtumpj. For over two hours we 1
stood this crosi-jlrlng , cramped up tehlnd { i
the stumps , but we were iortitrately covered i
from tus flra frora the hilt by the big
tree. ntict | | struck the ground only n few
Inches from our feet.However , at last tlio
Indian * get flre to the woods above us and
below us , and pretty scon we were obliged
either to como out of our cover or tn ba
burned. Wo decided to fatellie flrc , ana took
off our blouses and put them over our heads ,
Jumped across the running flames and , with
out stopping , ran through the dense smoke
about 600 yard * .
The smoke was our silvatlon. Wo reached
a cluster of bullberry bu-'hes about ten yards
In diameter that the flrp had pJased without
burning. We entcrcl this and lay down In
the tall grass and remained them all day.
Hero wo were In a sort of oisls , for the
burned wood was nil around us. There , without -
out speaking or moving , we remained until 9
o'clock on the 26th of June. We could see
about 300 ynrdo from us , on a snnll conical
hill , nn Indian vldotte. About 4 o'clock p. in ,
this \ldetto fired hla pistol three Umc-3 In
the air which I Interpreted as A signal. Soon
after thin I heard n powerful volco calling
out , and n party of 300 or monr warriors
came out from the hill , about two miles down
tno river , where wo could sec them keeping
up n skirmish flre and staging a peculiar
chant They patsed within 300 yards of us
nnd disappeared up the river. About nn hour
later Iho same \ldotto llred three more pla-
tel shots nnd left his place. Tbo same power
ful voice , and ns many more warriors came
together and left like the first party. Still
wo could see a few Indians keep up a firing ,
but every little while a few would leave nnd
follow the two large parties. Wo were now
hopeful that they would retreat and abandon
the ground. By 6-30 in the evening they had
gone , so far an we could sco from our posi
tion , but wo prudently rcnnlneJ where we
were until It was night a clouded night , hut
not so dark as was the previous one. The
Hrlng had ceased at about 6:30. : The Indian i
had gone and there was nrfect silence. We
concluded tl.at the regiment must have left ,
nnd If It had donn so wo were planning how
wo could join It , dismounted as wo were and
they hiving evidently three or four hours
the start of us. Wo had not tasted food nor
drink for nearly forty hours : that night was
our third without & wink of sleep ; our only
chance to travel was nt nUut and we were
at least 100 miles from the Yellowstone river.
Our condition may bo Imagined. Hungry , ex
hausted f10111 the want of sleep , and a whole
night's nuich before us , and no prospects for
any food.
As I was thinking of this I remembered
that about twelve miles from us , the morn
ing before the disaster , gomu of the olflccrs
went to look at a dead buffalo that lay n few
yards from the column to sco how long the
animal had been killed , and we saw that
the brute had not been killed more than an
hour before. It struck mo that wo could
march to that dead buffalo and flnd some
of tha meat still good enough for us to make
a meal of , and then go to a good hiding
place and sleep all day , and on the following
night take up our inarch to the Yellow
stone river. After making this decision wo
started for the place , and marching five
miles , we came to the foot of n very high
conical bill. O'Nell was exhausted and
wanted to take a rest , no I told him to dose
so while I went to the top of the hill and
looked around the country. The inoun was
out , and I thought I might see some traces
of the roglmuit.
While I was looking nt the horizon about
me I spied n flrc to the nortbwaid and In
the direction of the Indian village and the
hill where Iteno was. I called O'Neil , but
ho was sound nslcep. I woke him up , and
together vvo went on top of the hill. I pointed
out the flre , that sometimes was to bo seen
plainly and sometimes would disappear , and
I argued that this disappearance wan proba
bly caused by somebody moving around the
fire , and that where the flre was must bo
people , I decided that It was better to go
cautiously toward that flre. If It was our
loglmcnt vvo would be all right ; If not , we
would flnd there the traces ol the regiment ,
some dead horses that vvc could make a
meal of , and then follow the trail of the
command. Wo cautiously directed our
march toward the fire. The country was
icry broken , up and down hill , and mauy
ravines , nnd | every time vvc came to an clo-
vatlon wo could see the flro more distinctly.
Sometimes vvc would sit down to listen and
watch the surroundings. I thought that If
Reno's command was still there , perhaps It
was still surrounded by the Indians , and If so
wo must be very careful In approaching It ,
us to join them we would have to pass
thiough the Indian line. At last , in one of
our halts , wo heard the braying of a mule
n very familiar noise and a good sign that
there were Borne beings In the neighborhood.
We Ihtcned , and pretty soon we could hear
that peculiar noise made by cavalry troops ,
Indescribable , but still understood by a
practiced campaigner's car. We approached
still nearer , until I heard distinctly the
nolso of a side-line and the murmur of
voices.
Very cautiously we went on , until wo
could sco men standing before the flre and
recognize their Caucasian voices. Advancing
still more cautiously , I distinctly recognized
the volco of Lieutenant Varnum , now cap
tain , a bravo and brilliant olllcer In the
Seventh cavalry. He has received mention
as such In the last Wounded Knee fight. We
then felt sure that Reno nnd , probably , Cus
ter were there ; but.l as I have already said ,
we thought they might still bo surrounded
by Indians , so vvo crawled cautiously , and
when wo got within one hundred yards of
the visible party I thought that If there wore
any Indians around and vvo could call out
to the picket not to flro and who wo were ,
wo would at the same time call the atten
tion of the enemy. So we looked up toward
the picket party to scan the giound and
prepare for a run. Soon after I called out
to the picket who wo were"Oh , picket ,
don't flre ! It Is Lieutenant Do Rudlo and
Private O'Neil , " and we started to run. No
Indians were there. A cheer from the picket
was answered all over the line. Tired and
famished , wo were furnished with crackers
and coffee , nnd I related my adventures to
Captain Varnum. It was about 3 a. in. ,
the 27th of June.
.My name was down as ono of the casual
ties , but fortunately the bearer of Iho dis
patch could not go , and returned about an
hour after me. I was the first man to ford
the Little Dig Horn going west , and .the
last to ford It going cast.

A correspondent ot the Philadelphia Ledger.
writing from the capita of Denmark , toys :
Ono finds In the Danes ia simplicity that Is
very winning. Without thcj effusiveness of
more sojthern raccs.theiie Itvtioverthelc s , an
openness of heart , nn absence of reserve , a
cordiality which nnkcs thejr ho-tiltnllty en
tirely satisfactory and delightful. Ono feels
It even In the casual meeting with strangers.
It Is as If each Individual Jell It Incumbent
upon him , as rcprcsentlnBihla country , to wel
come as personal guest 'anV ' visitors to the
land of which he Is so fond. The Danes'
glflry In their past dajji ( sfength , when
Copenhagen "the mistress of thu North ; "
thnlr pride In their present sturdlness a prldo
which Is by no means unappi'cclatlvo of their
dependence upon the good will of the powers ,
their rovcrenco for the nie.neutoca and rellcc
of tns gene by ; thel- affection for the royal
family ; their love for their flag all these
emotions nre displayed with n frankness to
which English and Americans are entire
strangeis.
In no other country , of Europe Is the na
tion's I'ag so oftnn seen above sbcps , betoro
private houses , as n trademark , as a decora
tion , alracet as n necessity. When the Dane
travels ho takes Dancbrog with him. Its
history Is a union of biblical story and Roman
legend. During a fierce fight In the olden
da > s the tide of battle wa turning against
the Danes. A reverend bishop , who saw dis
aster Imminent , fell upon his knees , and ,
raising supplicating hands to heaven , prajed
that the Impending defeat might be averted
Ho prayed long , and his attendants were
obliged to support his arms when bis strength
failed. At last God gave a sign , and from the
sky there fell a flag , Dancb'og , Its white
cross flashing against a scarlet ground , ami
victory was to the Danes.
DEMOCRATIC WAYS Or ROYALTY.
The members of the royal family go about
Copenhagen , with perfect freedom. It Is by
no means uncommon to meet some of the
princesses In the shops , to pass In the sticet
nn olllcer who pointed out to jou as ono |
of the prlm.es. If > otir Danish friend Imp- 1
pens to think of mentioning an occuircncoj
so usual to him , or to dine nt a cafe on thoi
Lange Llnlo ( the fashionable drive ) or the Tl-
voll ( a summer garden ) at a table adjoining
that of a soldier who provea to be the queen's
nephew. The members of the royal family
oven do a llttlo sight-seeing occasionally , as' '
when they went In some numbers a few dnja
ago to show the Thorwnldsen museum and the j
Glyptothels ( a picture gallery ) to Prince
Christian's betrothed , the Princess Alexan
dria of Mecklenbuig. The good feeling ex
isting between king and people is not of
modern giowth. It Is related that when ]
Peter the Great visited Denmark he boasted ,
that any one of his subjects vvoultl kill him-1
eelf at the command of the czar. To which
the Danish king retorted that he dared Bleep
In the hut ot any peasant In his land , guarded
only by the love of his people an adventure
not rashly to be attempted by his Imperial
guest.
In Denmark , as In Holland and Germany ,
the storks nro welcomed and cherished be
cause of a curious sort of sentimentality that
seems more In accord with the characteristics
of n southern people. They are credited
with bringing good luck to the house , and
here , na In the fatherland , they are supposed
by children to be active purvejors ot liable ?
to the world. Whatever their usefulness
cither as brlngers of luck or as carriers of
babies , there Is no question as to their plc-
turesnuenesa as they stand meditatively on
of'fhelr Grilling nests
ono ICR In the midst
on the loot trees , or pick Kip Insects be
hind the plow , or gather about the joung
ones In the field and ttach them to fly. It
Is this same soit of epntiinent that keeps
nllve the custom ot surmounting n now house
with n wreath when the roof Is raised. With
sentiment goes a shrcw'd good sense , as shown
hewn In their proverb , "Don't ewe small
Jobte : don't kiss In the corner. " Even the
* .iat bit of this proverbial' advice , "Don t
drink In sips , " Is wise when cpplled to earn-
way schnapps , the national beverage , for cam-
way schnapps is a thtng-to be swallowed rapIdly -
Idly , and forgotten as quUkly as possible.
THRIFT A CHARACTERISTIC.
A pleasant thrift evoryvvheio Is evident
throughout Dcnimrk. There are no fabu-
louily rich people ; there Is no beggary.
Farms are laige and well cultivated. In
some meadows the cows'arel tethered In one
long row across the Held ; each animal Is
allowed a radius of twenty-fit o feet , and
every day sees the line moved fifty feet
ahead. This Insures an even growth of
grass , sudi aj cannot be If the herd Is al
lowed to roam at will. The villages are
compact In arrangement , the quadrangles
formed by the dwellings and barns reminding
ono a little of the "quads" of the English
universities. This airangement Is on account
of the winter wind , which blows Incessantly
and sweeps fiercely across the flat surface
of Jutland. Seclnnd Is not qulto so cold ns
Us sister province , because of the greater
number ot trees.
The summer scenery of Seeland Is Indeed
smiling. The view from the deck of the Jut
land steamer as It approaches Copenhagen
through the Ore found Is of a wooded shore
dotted with vlllaa , whoso gardens extend to
the water's edge. An occasional hotel , as at
Skodsborg , offers Inviting terraces , covered
with tables , and over the tree tops waves
the royal flag , to show that the crown prince
Is at his country house , Chirlottonlund. Loss
than twn tnllra Inland Is De'iistorff , the
King's chateau. The approach to Copenhagen
by water Is unmarked by the features which
make ugly the water fronts of American
and English cities , Thcro arc no unsightly
pleis , as In New York ; no elevators , as In
Uoston ; no walehouses , as In Liverpool. So
true Is this fact that the fashionable dilvo of
the city , the Lange Llnle. runt Juot behind
tbo landings of the countless stcamo's that
sweep swiftly and silently up and down
the sound and the king's palaca overlooks
the shipping of the harbor.
YANKEU TARS ON SHORE ,
Two weeks ago the San Francisco lay before -
fore the pali"o windows , and her sailois in
vaded the streets of the toun. An article
In a Copenhagen novupaper gave with ap
preciative humor an account of the behavior
of the Amei leans. The sailors from war
sh'vs or otho- countries act , It scums , with
Homo propriety when on shoio , but tbo Yan
kee tars come to land for amusement and
have It. For them , as for over ) ono else in
Copenhagen , the favorite pleasure ground was
Tlvoll , but the sailors wore not yersona grata
theio on aircount of their up'oarloDines *
While the stllo keeper carried on a DinUti-
Ameilcan argument with one rr.au , a dszci )
passed In by'jlud their comrade's back. They
telzcd A policeman who tried to stop them
anil made him dance to the whistled music
of "Yankee Doodle ; " they exhausted the vo
cabulary of the Engllsh-rpeakliiR waiter lu
the rc'Umant ; they made cno Amcrunn uiiul-
wlch out of two toplesi Danish sindwlMies ,
regardlojs ot the mixture of checwo ami
anchovies within ; nnd they finally succumbed
to the effect of the national nehnnirs , and
slept with their cheeks pillowed on their
plates. In splto of this beravlor the ni-Wi-
yapor * were so courteous as to express regret
at their drpirturo. They found consolation ,
however. In the coming of a Russian flhlp
which brought as royil gtiwts the empress
dowager end other "givit creatures , " us
Louisa Alcott called well known people. The
tmyrcss dowager Is as jotithful In appearance
as Is the princess ot Wales , her tlstor , nnd
It Is hard to believe that she can bo the
mother of the boirded ruler ot all the lids-
s an * . The Russian sallots are huge , hairy
bears There seemed to an enormous number
of them on the ship , for tha upper deck
alwa > s was filled with" ' them , chcerfullj ,
though lnan > rctirlntcly clad In white. The
king of Slain , now In England , has Just left
Copenhagen One ot his sons Is In the Din-
Ish army , and bis tmjesiy came to visit
him. Ho looks like on amiable mulatto lu a

hatROYALTY'S
ROYALTY'S POOR QUARTERS.
The rojal family seems poorly lodged In
Copenhagen. The palace extends about the
four sides of n square , ami 11 Is not Im
posing In sle or prepossessing In appcar-
nuco. In one quarter lives the king , In an
other the crown prince , the third Is for
guests and the fourth Is occupied by the
minister of the exterior Prince Carl nnd
his w Ife , the Princess Maud of Wales , live
In n house adjoining The other royal
dwellings about the city have been given over
to the people for mo purpose or another
The palace of Clmrlottenborg Is now n pic
ture gallery ; the princes' palace , an ethno
graphical museum ; Rosenberg contains a
chronological collection of memorials ot the
king ; Froderlcksberg Is n military school ,
and Chrlstlansbnrg \ ot no use cither to
king or people since Its partial destruction
by flre In 1SS4. The Chrlstlansborg chapel
and riding school escaped the flames , nnd
In tbo latter the king rides every morning
In the winter. Copenhagen Is about the
size of Boston ; It Is as beautiful as Wash
ington , and as Interesting as Brussels A
waterway through or Into n city alwa > s en
hances Its chaim , and tint Copenhagen
has , bcaldo pleasant parks and handsome
buildings.
Dinlsh women seem to like subdued colors
In dress grajs and tans , which harmop.-
l/o well with the shadowy sky and the
cool sea. Hut because of the number o'
soldiers and sailors thcro Is no lack ot color
In the streets Even the cabmen wear light
eoats , picked out with cherry trimmings
and the king's livery Is of the most vivid
scarlet. Perhaps It la an affection for gay
clothes that Ins led imny a jouth Into the
army. It seems , however , as If one would
only peed to take a lad who was eager to
enlist Into a caserne to prove to him that
the existence of a private soldier Is a dog s
life. To be sure , bo is secure from anj
necessity for Independent thought If that Is
a burden to him , but , on the other band ,
he Is equally without opportunity to exercise
his own will Ho Is as much at the beck
nnd call of his superior olllc ° rs as any slave
In slave das. . Ho must rush to cairy out
any order which may bo but a whim of his
commander ; he must yield a cheerful as
well as an Implicit obedience ; he must be
the water carrier , the dray hoivo , even the
hand towel of his master If the Intter = jlls
his gloves The Danish privates lack the
trlnnoas and the erect carriage of her
majestj's soldiers , but the otllcors are above
reproach In personal appeal anco , and the
dilll which the vviltcr watched at the artil
lery caserne was gone through with a skill
and pieclsion which equaled that of any Eng
lish , American or French soldiers lu that
arm of the service.
COPENHAGEN'S PRIDE.
Copenhagen's greatest priac Is the Thoi-
walduen collectlcn. The great sculptor's
grave lies in the guadrangle around whlc'i
in built the museum , his best monument
There are gathered not only many of hlj
oilglnals but also plaster reproductions of
much of his work which Is placed olspwhctc ,
so that the museum offers to the student of
sculpture an opportunity for a fairly ex
haustive study ot ThorwalJflen's art. Per
haps the best known of all his creations Is
the statue of the risen Savior , which , with
the figures of the disciples , stands In the
Church of Our Lady , the rojal church. It
Is a figure of appealing beauty , grave and
tender. One appreciates when the noithern
typo of face bus become familiar that the
sculptor's presentment of our Lord la thor
oughly Scandinavian In feature.
Thcro are some curiosities ot architecture
In Copenhagen. The Church of Our Re
deemer has a gilded spiral staircase on the
outsldo ot the tower , which makes It look
like a loosely twisted paper lamplighter. Tac
round tower Is ascended within by a winding
wall ( up which Peter the Great once drove
his carriage. The Trederlks church , the
most beautltul In the city , is popularly
known as the marble church for obvious
reasons. The dome Is of copper , which the
salt air has turned to a lovely green and
It was made from metal contributed from
every part of the kingdom. It Is told that
an old peasant woman who had given a
siucepau to the melting pot visited the
building as soon as It was finished In order
to see just -whore her gift was hung.
OUTDOOR LIFE.
It Is strange that Americans do not enjoy
out-of-door life ns do the continental Euro
peans. It cannot be a question of climate ,
for Denmark has a cllmato very similar to
ours In the northeastern , states a long , cold
winter and a short , hot summer. Hut as
soon as the warm days come hero the open-
air gardens and restaurants open , and are
filled with people who seem only too glad
to breathe beneath the sky. It Is something
that Americans should learn , but how shall
they bo taught ?
If the Danes had the opportunity to teach
us they wotld gladly do so , for their Interest
In America and Americans Is keen and their
knowledge of American history and literature
Is simply amazing as compared with the
patronizing Ignorance of many English pee
ple. There always is American news In the
nowspapeis , and hardly a day goes by with
out a short article on bomo feature of Amer
ican life. Sometimes these paragraphs aie
moro Interesting than true. Ono ot recent
date declares that many American million
aires have learned to run locomotives , and
frequently act as engineers on their own
trains between New York nnd the west.
